Phil Gould said it will be over by half time and end a cricket score, he's an absolute whopper, so I hope saints make him eat his word personally. Go saints.

Then come back and lose every week in superleague.

I hope he's right.

Hope saints get walloped or failing that they lose to a highly controversial score in the last minute..just to see McManus face at the final whistle....

I totally agree with you wirecation. I think if we are wishing teams from other country's to turn us over like that, we might as well be anti-English towards our clubs.

I don’t dislike Aussies…league is their number one sport after all. I do loathe St Helens. Couldn’t give a hoot about ridiculous patriotism. Come on Penrith. Saying that Saints will walk Super League again.

I bet you cheered Wigan on in all their WCC games.

They played ok against a pretty weakend St.George team. If they play like that against Penrith they'll be in trouble. But i hope they do beat Penrith as when it comes to us vs the NRL i'm firmly behind any English team. And if Saints do win, watching the Aussies pile on excuse after excuse is always fun

If wigan win, then it's better than an Aussie team winning.

Quite impressed esp their speed at play the bal.Frightening and shoe in for SL.40 degree heat tho at Penrith could be a bridge too far.

The match should be a good comparison between the game and teams in north and south hemispheres. Hope the Saints team wins, however, can we endure the Saints speccies ongoing crowing about their wonder team. Doubt it...

My enemy's enemy is my friend. Who's the biggest enemy, Saints or the Aussies?

I'm not bothered who wins.

Pretty much this.

For me, it's a game that we, the English, seem to place much more importance on than the Aussies have ever have, or ever will.

From what we see of the Aussie league, are we really expected to believe, even if they somehow manage a win, that Saints are the best RL club side in the world?

They already are if you read redvee.

Have been a Penrith season ticket holder for the past 23 years but having spent my first 26 years living in England where I was weaned on RL I have always supported any UK team playing here. So I will be in the St Helens corner this Saturday.
I have attended all 4 of the previous WCC matches played in Aus including the 1976 match when St Helens lost to Eastern Suburbs.
